Alternative Music quotes by Erol Alkan
When I hear the word 'independent' I reach for my revolver. At this point, what the hell does that mean? The English Patient is an independent film. Hootie and the Blowfish are alternative music. I'm the Queen of Denmark. I don't know what it means anymore. ~ Jim Jarmusch
Alternative Music quotes by Jim Jarmusch
Alternative music is no longer alternative once it's in the mainstream. ~ Kurt Cobain
Alternative Music quotes by Kurt Cobain
I know there's a certain love and affection for the homemade on the Internet, and I'm all for that, too, and I appreciate it in alternative music, and I appreciate it in B-movies and in Sundance, independent films. ~ Robert Englund
Alternative Music quotes by Robert Englund
When I was in seventh grade, I totally had a crush on a guy who was older than me, and he listened to alternative music. So he was into Days of the New and stuff like that, and more poppy stuff, too, like Matchbox Twenty. ~ Carrie Underwood
Alternative Music quotes by Carrie Underwood
I think it's really cool, but Jimmy Eat World and Gin Blossoms did it better than anyone. People don't realize just how awesome the Arizona history is, especially for alternative music. Growing up, that's all I ever wanted to be was those two bands. ~ Nate Ruess
Alternative Music quotes by Nate Ruess
When alternative music - which is supposed to be the standard-bearer of where white rock is headed - becomes either too cute or too manufactured, that's just really not good. ~ Billy Corgan
Alternative Music quotes by Billy Corgan
For the life of me I cannot remember, what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise. For the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen. ~ The Verve Pipe
Alternative Music quotes by The Verve Pipe
I've always seen myself as the person listening to alternative music and all that - generic indie person. I always tried to be the least pretty I could be. ~ Jenny Hval
Alternative Music quotes by Jenny Hval
In the '90s, the radio was still alive with all different kinds of points of view, and I think that's why people are longing for that time. It was the first time that alternative music broke through to the mainstream. ~ Shirley Manson
Alternative Music quotes by Shirley Manson
I get a thrill meeting kids who are into alternative music. ~ Kurt Cobain
Alternative Music quotes by Kurt Cobain
I don't want to pooh-pooh modern pop. I appreciate that as well, but my personal favorite kind of music is guitar-based rock. I like grunge and garage bands and alternative music, but that's more my personal taste. ~ Al Yankovic
Alternative Music quotes by Al Yankovic
One series of notes, high and delicate, sang of a sweet moonlight kiss gone sour; another line of music rippled with regret over opportunities forever lost. ~ Sharon M. Draper
Alternative Music quotes by Sharon M. Draper
I think that there's a proliferation of music that is done entirely in the bedroom for an Internet audience, but there's no way in hell that you could actually kill off a live show, and its importance in the creation of music - it's just impossible. ~ Zach Condon
Alternative Music quotes by Zach Condon
He felt her there beside him, just as she had always been on evenings like this when he had called for music, and when her touch on her instrument, or her least word to him, had been so much her own; except that he would have preferred even to this vivid dream her simple reality in the dark. ~ Murasaki Shikibu
Alternative Music quotes by Murasaki Shikibu
The basic success of the conga came from ... that basic principle of African music and dance: everybody participates. The conga eradicated the distinction between performer and audience, broke down the wall of the proscenium ... ~ Ned Sublette
Alternative Music quotes by Ned Sublette
I think innately knew that music draws people together and that good music is liked by almost everybody. ~ Willie Nelson
Alternative Music quotes by Willie Nelson
I love music. But I'm not gonna work myself to death. If there ever comes a point where I'm not enjoying it, then I'm not gonna do it anymore. I've promised myself that. I've written it down on paper and signed a contract. ~ Solange Knowles
Alternative Music quotes by Solange Knowles
A bunch of bad songs, make an awful whine. ~ Benny Bellamacina
Alternative Music quotes by Benny Bellamacina
We were orphans before we were ever the sons of these songs. ~ The Gaslight Anthem , Orphans
Alternative Music quotes by The Gaslight Anthem , Orphans
I'm not technically proficient enough to attempt all kinds of music. ~ Noel Gallagher
Alternative Music quotes by Noel Gallagher
With the bass it's another thing. I don't need to use alternate thumb-picking as much. Even though Jack says he loves it. My thought is that it might irritate him somewhat. ~ Jorma Kaukonen
Alternative Music quotes by Jorma Kaukonen
Every time I tried writing my own songs, they would come out very country. I couldn't fight it, and the more I listened to country music, the more I loved it, and it just became very natural. ~ Hayley Orrantia
Alternative Music quotes by Hayley Orrantia
You have to assemble your life yourself - action by action. And be satisfied if each one achieves its goal, as far as it can. No one can keep that from happening. - But there are external obstacles. ... Not to behaving with justice, self-control, and good sense. - Well, but perhaps to some more concrete action. But if you accept the obstacle and work with what you're given, an alternative will present itself - another piece of what you're trying to assemble. Action by action. ~ Marcus Aurelius
Alternative Music quotes by Marcus Aurelius
I do have a lot of difficulty figuring out what I want to be working on, but what's the alternative? To be one of those people who has a million things they want to do, and then never does any of them? And then where will you be? ~ Cyndi Lauper
Alternative Music quotes by Cyndi Lauper
We're not talking about an elite art form from the price point of view. We have a building in L.A. that is incredibly open, exciting, inviting, and all that, and there's no reason for this music not to be part of everybody's everyday life. ~ Esa-Pekka Salonen
Alternative Music quotes by Esa-Pekka Salonen
Poetry's work is not simply the recording of inner or outer perception; it makes by words and music new possibilities of perceiving ~ Jane Hirshfield
Alternative Music quotes by Jane Hirshfield
I started feeling it was wrong to withhold my music for money - as strange as that might sound! ~ Jane Siberry
Alternative Music quotes by Jane Siberry
I really enjoy the social aspects of music as much as anything. ~ Steve Martin
Alternative Music quotes by Steve Martin
Rosette disappeared onto the dance floor. Wells sat in silence for a minute, watching the dancers. The worldwide cult of fast money spent stupidly. The worldwide cult of trying too hard. Moscow, Rio, Los Angeles, Tokyo, New York, London, Shanghai--the story was the same everywhere. The same overloud music, the same overpromoted brand names, the same fake tits, about as erotic as helium balloons. Everywhere an orgy of empty consumption and bad sex. Las Vegas was the cult's world headquarters, Donald Trump its patron saint. Wells had spent ten years in the barren mountains of Afghanistan and Pakistan. He never wanted to live there again. But if he had to choose between an eternity there or in the supposed luxury of this club, he'd go back without a second thought. ~ Alex Berenson
Alternative Music quotes by Alex Berenson
With no reason to hide these words I feel, and no reason to talk about the books I read, but still, I do. ~ Morrissey
Alternative Music quotes by Morrissey
On thing he discovered with a great deal of astonishment was that music held more for him than just pleasure. There was meat to it. The grouping of sounds, their forms in the air as they rang out and faded, said something comforting to him about the rule of creation. What the music said was that there is a right way for things to be ordered so that life might not always be just tangle and drift but have a shape, an aim. It was a powerful argument against the notion that things just happen. ~ Charles Frazier
Alternative Music quotes by Charles Frazier
Geordie stepped forward and took her hand. "I hope you're not tired, because I intend to keep you on my arm until the music stops. ~ Amy Jarecki
Alternative Music quotes by Amy Jarecki
Above all, I feel that the sounds of this world are so beautiful in themselves that if only we could listen to them properly, cinema would have no need for music at all. ~ Andrei Tarkovsky
Alternative Music quotes by Andrei Tarkovsky
The moment at which music reveals its true nature is contained in the ancient exercise of the theme with variations. The complete mystery of music is explained right there. ~ Pierre Schaeffer
Alternative Music quotes by Pierre Schaeffer
I would love to have a go at a band or some form of music one day. ~ Landon Liboiron
Alternative Music quotes by Landon Liboiron
At 6 years old, the ice became a place for me to express myself. Because I was so shy off the ice, it became my safe haven, with music and freedom and self-expression. That was my emotional outlet. ~ Kristi Yamaguchi
Alternative Music quotes by Kristi Yamaguchi
If I want to pursue the art of painting - or music or writing or sculpture - it requires only my time and a few dollars for materials. If, however, I want to produce a motion picture I have to go out and raise a million dollars! ~ Orson Welles
Alternative Music quotes by Orson Welles
I love all kinds of music. My dad's from London, so he loves David Bowie, the Stones, The Clash. I grew up with that influence while loving poetry and loving all kinds of current music. ~ Adam Hicks
Alternative Music quotes by Adam Hicks
The song reminds me of my life lately and the way things that happen devastate you so badly but then turn around and totally surprise you by growing into something unexpected and astounding.
Of course, i could be wrong. I mean, who knows what the song is really about except whoever wrote it? But that's one of the many things about music that's so great. You can interpret a song and relate it to your life any way you want. ~ Love Maia
Alternative Music quotes by Love Maia
There is so much good music in the U.S. and there is just a small section that gets recognised at the Grammys. ~ Patrick Carney
Alternative Music quotes by Patrick Carney
I don't believe in good music and bad music anymore. I'm through with that phase of my life. Sometimes I just wanna feel good, so I put on a good record. But mostly I'm more of a businessman than a music fan, so I'm listening to music in terms of, is this effective or not effective? ~ Questlove
Alternative Music quotes by Questlove
Artists reach areas far beyond the reach of politicians. Art, especially entertainment and music, is understood by everybody, and it lifts the spirits and the morale of those who hear it. ~ Nelson Mandela
Alternative Music quotes by Nelson Mandela
To be a DJ was to be God. To be a DJ at an alternative public radio station ? That was being God with a mission. It was thinking you were the first person to discover The Clash and you had to spread the word. ~ Carrie Vaughn
Alternative Music quotes by Carrie Vaughn
Let knowledge grow from more to more, But more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, May make one music as before, But vaster. ~ Alfred Lord Tennyson
Alternative Music quotes by Alfred Lord Tennyson
Unfortunately, modern medicine "threw the baby out with the bathwater" while striving to transform the healing arts into the healing sciences something was lost. For all its wonders and improvements in care and healing, modern medicine is the third leading cause of death in countries like the United States, and a significant part of the population seeks out alternative treatments since the medical system is not meeting their needs1. ~ Erich Hunter
Alternative Music quotes by Erich Hunter
Montreal was a very active jazz center until club owners started putting in strippers instead of music. Before long, there was nothing to hear. ~ Oscar Peterson
Alternative Music quotes by Oscar Peterson
I consider us to be one of the first Internet-based bands, especially because we basically started our entire band via the Internet. Before MySpace Music even existed, we had a band MySpace page. We were one of the first fifty bands on PureVolume(.com), and we really built everything from the Internet. That's how we started talking to record labels, that's how we booked our first tours. Without the Internet social networking, like Twitter, we definitely wouldn't be where we are today. It is a huge part of the band. ~ Jack Barakat
Alternative Music quotes by Jack Barakat
Falling in love, that's the roller coaster, the ups and downs, the thrills. Being in love, that's the carousel - around and around with music playing. But staying in love ... " She sighed, remembering. "That's the maze, Anna. There are all the twists and turns and dead ends. You have to keep going, keep trusting. ~ Nora Roberts
